The Bollywood version of Spider-Man, starring Shah Rukh Khan (Om Shanthi Om), now has a director — Anubhav Sinha, director of action-movie classics like Dus and Cash. Apparently the film will involve a Spider-Man-style superhero — except that he also soars through the air at supersonic speeds, like Superman. SRK is looking for his costar, a 12-year-old boy. We previously reported that this film will be about a kid who gains access to an alien device that grants his wishes, but it sounds like the script for the most expensive movie in Bollywood history is still being written.
